Thank you for your notice. It was fixed (in man-1.5p-2). Ivana Varekova
for manpath, it does now search in /usr/share/man/zh:/usr/share/man/zh_TW:/usr/share/man/zh_TW.UTF-8 for message file(Comment#1), it looks only for /usr/share/locale/zh/man and /usr/share/locale/zh_TW.UTF-8/man but not /usr/share/locale/zh_TW/man
Thank you for your notice. The last man package (1.5p) doesn't contain chinesse massage file. Message files for all languages conteined in man package are stored in /usr/share/man/two_char directories. These directories are strictly determinated. I think all man message files should be in two_char name directories. (In your case/usr/share/locale/zh/). Ivana Varekova

Hello, thaky you for your help. I think the best solution is add translated man pages directly to the upstream version so everyone could use this man pages (not just Fedora Core users). Can you please send your work to Federico Lucifredi (federico) - he is man maintainer and he can add your work directly to the upstream man. If there is any problem plese add a comment. Ivana
